About this listen

Every Year, Approximately Two in Five Americans Are Unexpectedly Thrust into the Role of Caregivers … 70% Are Completely Unprepared

Being the caregiver is a daunting experience. You can feel overwhelmed by the emotional, physical, and psychological aspects.

How do you start?
What do you need to know & do?
How do you make good decisions, and who can help you?

Don't worry, you're not alone!

"A Compassionate Journey" delivers a holistic approach to understanding and meeting the complex needs of your aging parent or loved one without having to spend thousands and thousands of dollars for help. From practical assessments to emotional support strategies, it lays out every step used by professionals who have successfully done what you're taking on.

You'll be guided through recognizing signs of cognitive decline, managing legal and financial concerns, and addressing the emotional and spiritual well-being of both the caregiver and the aging parent.

Detailed questionnaires to assess the evolving needs of your aging parent.

  • Assessments to evaluate your parent's physical, cognitive, and emotional needs
  • Questionnaires to help you understand your own strengths, limitations, and support system as a caregiver
  • Guidance on creating effective care plans that respect the dignity and autonomy of your loved one. Checklists and action plans that will help you organize your parent's finances, medical care, living arrangements, and strategies for self-care and managing caregiver stress and burnout
  • Guidance on difficult conversations, legal considerations, and end-of-life planning
  • External resources that can provide additional support and health-related information

Step into this journey with the confidence that you are not alone, equipped with knowledge and empathy to make the best decisions for your loved ones.
